Quote:Originally posted by GweiLo: I’ve had it explained to me (mainly by French speakers) that the reason why they dub is A) many people don’t speak other languages B) they are very protective of their own language and don’t want too much foreign influence. I can maybe understand A)… although I think subtitles are far faaaaaaaar better since you get to hear the original performance and have a chance to learn the language. As for reason B), that’s just plain silly. There’s always been a lot of foreign language influence on all European languages. It’s a part of the natural evolvement of a language and has been for as long as humans came up with the concept of language in the first place. Ack! I’m rambling again, aren’t I? (I could go on about this subject forever. I’ll just go ahead and round it up now.) Anyway, I have a hard time deciding which the most stupid alternative is: The way some European countries choose to dub TV shows and movies, or the way the census in Northern American puts a gag on people’s rights to free expression. (I.e. not allow certain words to be used.) Stupidity is alive and well on both sides of the pond.

And can I suggest a meet-up at the Fusion convention at the end of April in Blackpool, UK, which will be featuring Nathan, Gina, Jewel, Morena, and lots of Buffy and Angel people too.

Quote:Originally posted by Starhand: A lot folk respond to it and there were loads of Brits, Germans, Dutch,and Scandinavians. I've never seen anyone post that they were from Spain or from France. The French thing I've been kinda curiuos about since the DVDs come with a French language selection. Well I'm french and I live in Spain! and no wonder there are few French people, Firefly was never aired and Buffy never was put before 22:30 on TV... Frech language is for Quebec.
